Pharrell Williams AIA Convention Appearance Canceled

Williams is out. Tony Hsieh is in.

Pharrell Williams will no longer be appearing at the 2014 AIA National Convention, according to a tweet by the convention. The "Happy" musician and Buffalo hat aficionado reportedly had a "scheduling conflict" with the appearance, which was announced in March. The convention will be held on June 26-28 in Chicago.
